Your Complete Wedding Music Package
No one else offers such a complete Wedding music experience as Helter Skelter, all at their professional high standard and with huge savings to be made by availing of package deals as opposed to hiring many different people for all the different elements.
Reception
The
typical Helter Skelter reception package is a great value 5-hour show, consisting of the band
and afterwards a disco.
Band:
Helter
Skelter always prove to be the ideal choice of band for
Weddings. A typical Wedding set, lasting over 2 hours, will include '50s, '60s
and '70s Classic Rock 'n' Roll, Country, Waltzes, Irish, Ballads, '60s, '70s,
'80s, '90s and '00s Rock and Slow Sets. As Wedding guests usually span a wide
age spread, such a variety of music is essential so that everybody hears
something they will enjoy. Volume levels are also key
to everyone’s enjoyment and are kept so that everybody goes home having had a
pleasurable day, regardless of age or musical tastes.
First
Dance
Helter
Skelter know
that a couple’s first dance as man and wife is a very important part of the
Wedding Day and so, unlike other bands who simply play a CD, they will always
play the bride and groom’s own personal choice of song for this.
Some of the most popular choices for first
dance songs include:
·
Wonderful Tonight – Eric Clapton
·
Angels – Robbie Williams
·
When You Say Nothing At All
– Ronan Keating
·
She’s The One – Robbie Williams
· Greatest Day – Take That
· Better – Tom Baxter
·
The Way You Look Tonight – Frank Sinatra
·
Love Is All Around – Wet Wet Wet / The Troggs
·
Always On My Mind – Elvis Presley / Willie Nelson
·
Unchained Melody – The Righteous Brothers
·
My Girl – The Temptations
·
Amazed –
Lonestar
·
This Year’s Love –
David Gray
· The Wonder Of You – Elvis Presley
If none of these are suited and providing they are given adequate
time, the band are more than happy to learn any song of the couple’s choice
for the first dance.
Disco:
After the band's set finishes, there is an immediate transition to a very experienced DJ who will take over to finish off the night in style, with a great selection of party favourites and guaranteed floor fillers. The same equipment is used so there is no time lapse as there might be with an outside DJ. The DJ has an amazing catalogue of thousands of songs and so is always open to and confident of fulfilling any requests. The DJ set is very adaptable to any particular preferences, again once adequate notice is given.

CHURCH
or CEREMONY
The church or ceremony music element of the package can be completely tailored to suit the bride and groom’s own preferences. The standard set up used is male vocalist, with piano and acoustic guitar accompaniment. A choice of female vocalist instead of or in addition to the male and a choice of one instrument only can be made.
Both singers have many years experience and a very wide catalogue of material ranging from contemporary songs to traditional hymns and are always willing to learn new personal favourites for your special day.
Also
available, but incurring extra costs, are violin, cello, organ, flute and
saxophone players.
Whatever
you require can be provided, ensuring that the church music is exactly as you
imagined it would be.
ARRIVAL AT HOTEL
At certain venues, the option of music for guests on arrival at
hotel is available. This consists of two vocalists with two acoustic guitars
playing easy listening background music as the guests mingle and enjoy
refreshments while awaiting the bride and groom’s arrival. This is becoming an
increasingly popular choice where available.
THE DAY AFTER
With the ever-increasing trend of parties the day after a Wedding,
the final option available is the provision of the music for this party. This
takes the form of a 2-piece band playing a wide variety of new and old songs to
keep everyone entertained and round off the Wedding celebrations in a relaxed
and enjoyable way.

Wedding Packages are quoted on an individual basis and are dependant on
